Learning Objectives Learning Objectives List two to three objectives that highlight the instructional content and/or expected learning outcomes of your presentation. Describe what the learner is expected to do differently, keeping in mind your identified practice gaps, needs, and expected results. Examples of expected results include increasing knowledge/skills and, when appropriate, applying new strategies to make practice modifications. Outcomes should be grounded in real expertise (what are the best performers deciding/doing?). Address potential challenges/barriers to change during your talk and discuss potential solutions so that learners are better equipped to make changes in practice if needed. @ Type in your Twitter handle here!
Effective Educational Practices Effective Educational Practices Talk titles should inspire curiosity. If you update your talk title, please send it to ASTRO staff so they can update the program. Consider making your talk case-based with decision points throughout. Use decision points as opportunities for attendees to take one minute and speak to one another about what they would do. People learn more when they collaborate. Spend less time on slides and more time on discussion, questions and answers, and attendee engagement. Be sure you know when your session will be addressing Q&A. Show how this education can help attendees make a meaningful, positive change in their day-to-day practice. @ Type in your Twitter handle here!

Widescreen Format Widescreen Format To take full advantage of the widescreen format, we recommend that you build or convert your presentation to 16:9. If you would prefer to use your own PowerPoint template, you can change an existing 4:3 presentation into a 16:9 widescreen format. For PowerPoint 2010 and 2007, on the "Design" tab, click on "Page Setup". In the drop-down box, select "On-Screen Show (16:9)" and click "OK." If you are using Office 2003, click "File" and select "Page Setup" and then enter in "10" in the first field and "5.63" in the second field and click "OK." If you make this change on an existing presentation, your slides will expand to the new size. If you have any videos or photos in an existing PowerPoint, they might need to be resized (so they do not appear stretched). Check animations to ensure the elements line up correctly. @ Type in your Twitter handle here!
